This is nowhere close to small enough to replace my Dinovo Mini…but if you are on the boat that would prefer a full size keyboard then this might be an option for you. At $120 though, it’s not the cheapest option out there. SlashGear The keyboard uses 2.4GHz wireless tech with 12 channels that it can change automatically to […]
Read morePretty sure this is the first time I ever wished I was a Cablevision customer, but kudos to them for going against the norm. This seems like a cool idea, but I will withhold judgement until I see it in action. Multichannel "With our PC to TV Media Relay service, we are putting an end to the need for families […]
Read moreHow about a tuner card review to start your day? This one is combo so it isn’t scared by the switch to digital.

I agree with most everything Brent offers here, and he goes in detail as always. Just really wish it didn’t cost $150…still a cool device.
